How fast was traffic back then? How was it like to walk up to the Mid-Levels, before the escalator was set in place, before the wet markets made way for bars and restaurant? And how would the story change, if we find a handwritten letter of someone recounting those experiences from so many years ago?公仔箱論壇( l0 y9 o6 d7 Y. H

Earlier from February to April at Hong Kong University Museum and Art Gallery, a selection of archival materials was in display to complement the story which the exhibition “Encounters: Twentieth-century Chinese Art from the Khoan and Michael Sullivan Collection” tried to tell. Amongst these materials are correspondences between the collector and artists from decades ago, where artists sometimes recounted the hardships of sustaining a living, and at the same time, the jovial moments of encountering like-minded individuals to share their love of art.

Let us take a step back, and ask – what are the building blocks we need for us to write art histories, that form the conception consisting of multiple voices and perspectives? Do we need oral interviews? Archival materials? What about photo documentation?

Would players of the art field – those artists, writers, curators, gallerists, collectors alike - keep such materials? What would happen to these materials if its owner dies? Or would academics have their private collection too (they tend to accumulate an exponential amount of research materials, don’t you think so?)? Or also some eccentric individuals who just have a collecting obsession?

他們總是說，一張圖片勝過千言萬語。 看一張老香港照片，你也許會問，哇，這真是威靈頓街？當年的交通有現在那麼惡劣嗎？沒有半山扶手電梯，人們真的徒步上山嗎？蘇豪區在酒吧林立以前，究竟是怎樣的？如果有天你找到一封描寫當年中上環的手寫信，故事又會怎樣？公仔箱論壇- u) i5 k* X/ Z: ~! J

如果一張圖片勝過千言萬語，一份文獻也同樣勝過千言萬語。 早前香港大學博物館舉辦展覽「欣於所遇：蘇立文、吳環伉儷珍藏二十世紀中國美術」， 除了展出蘇立文六十年以來的收藏，也展出一部分蘇立文與藝術家的書信，以及其他一手文獻。在這些書信裡，有藝術家描述以藝術維持生活的艱苦，同時亦難掩巧遇同樣熱愛藝術的同道中人之喜悅。平心而論，藝術生態的起落輪迴，無論在於香港或是其他語境，只要是有心人，掙扎也同樣揪心。

問題可以一直無止境問下去，而答案嘛，也許是很籠統的「按個別情況而定」。這些個別情況，像生活一樣難以預料，有驚喜，也有失落。然而，當我們開始發問，便是尋找的第一步。 |
